Book Reviews of The Adventures of Johnny Bunko: The Last Career Guide You'll Ever Need
Book Review: Go With What You Know
Summary: 4 Stars
I actually purchased this book in support of the artist Rob Ten Pas whom I know as VanHeist on the artist community Web site deviantART. I found myself thoroughly enjoying the book, and actually wishing it were a wee bit longer. Even so, I found the "self-help" to be a tad simplistic. A good outline for moving up in one's career, but for more meat, look elsewhere. As expected, the art is attention grabbing, and the characterizations are stellar. Definitely worth the read whether you're trying to find a new career or not.
